4. FIRST AID MEASURES4. FIRST AID MEASURES

If irritation or other symptoms (as noted above) occur or persist from any route of exposure, remove the affected individual from the area and consult with a physician.If irritation or other symptoms (as noted above) occur or persist from any route of exposure, remove the affected individual from the area and consult with a physician.

Eyes:

Flush with plenty of water or eye wash solution for a minimum of 5 minutes. Flush longer is there is any indication of residual chemical in the eye. Ensure adequate flushing by separating the eyelids with fingers and rolling the eyes in a circular motion while flushing. Get medical attention if irritation persists.

Skin: Wash with soap and water- get medical attention if irritation occurs.

Ingestion: No ingestion effects known. Treat symptomatically.

Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek medical attention.

5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES

Flammability of Product: N/A

Flash Point (Method Used): Not Applicable

Flammable Limits: LEL: Not EstablishedUEL: Not Established

Auto Ignition Temperature: No information

Hazardous Combustion Products: Not Available

Conditions Under Which Flammability Could Occur: Not Available

Fire and Explosive Properties:

This product has not been evaluated for dust explosion potential. Dust suspended in air in critical proportions and in the presence of an ignition source may be ignited by electrical arcs, sparks, welding torches, open flame or other significant heat sources including electrostatic charge. This product is not known to present any fire hazard.

Extinguishing Media:

• Dry Chemical• Carbon Dioxide• Foam• Water

Note: Water spray can be used to absorb heat and cool and protect surrounding exposed material. Avoid hose streams or any method which will create dust clouds.

Special Firefighting Procedures:

Wear self contained breathing apparatus and complete personal protective equipment when entering confined areas where potential for exposure to vapors or products of combustion exists. Wear SCBA equipped with a full face piece and operated in a pressure-demand mode (or other positive pressure mode) and protective clothing.

Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: None Known

6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (STEPS FOR SPILLS)6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (STEPS FOR SPILLS)

Containment Techniques: No information

Methods for Cleaning Up:Wear personal protective clothing and equipment. Using care to avoid dust generation, vacuum or sweep into a closed container for reuse or disposal. Do not sweep or flush spilled product into public sewer, streams or other water systems.

Environmental Protection: Notify authorities if large amounts of product enters sewer.

7. HANDLING AND STORAGE7. HANDLING AND STORAGE

Handling

Safe Handling:

• Wear safety glasses. Avoid contact with eyes.• Use under well-ventilated conditions. • Wash thoroughly after handling.• After repeated or prolonged contact with skin.• Avoid breathing dust. Avoid routine inhalation of dust of

any kind. Exercise care when emptying containers, sweeping, mixing or doing other tasks which can create dust.

Although the risk of a dust explosion is low, as a precaution, implement the following safety measures:

• Eliminate ignition sources (sparks, static buildup, excessive heat etc). In general, dust of organic materials is a static charge generator which may be ignited by electrostatic discharge, electrical arcs, sparks, welding torches, cigarettes, open flame, or other significant heat sources. Prevent accumulation of dust (e.g. well-ventilated conditions, promptly vacuuming spills, cleaning overhead horizontal surfaces etc.)

Storage

Requirements for Storage Areas and Containers: Store in a cool, dry location, in a sealed container in a well ventilated area.

8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION8. EXPOSURE CONTROL/PERSONAL PROTECTION

NOTES:

General threshold value (MAK) for dust: 1.5 mg/m3 (respirable fraction) and 4 mg/m3 (inhalable fraction). As a guideline use the following for inert or nuisance dust (particulates not otherwise classified):

-OSHA TWA: 5 mg/m3 respirable fraction and 15 mg/m3 total dust.-ACGIH TWA: 3 mg/m3 respirable fraction and 10 mg/m3 inhalable particulates.

Engineering Controls:

Always provide effective general and, when necessary, local exhaust ventilation to draw spray, aerosol, fume, mist and vapor away from workers to prevent routine inhalation. Ventilation must be adequate to maintain the ambient workplace atmosphere below the exposure limits(s) outlined in the MSDS.

Personal Protection

Eye: Eye protection (e.g. goggles) suitable for keeping dust out of the eyes.

Skin/Body: Lab coats and gloves may be worn.

Respiratory:

In case of insufficient ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment, if inhalation of dust cannot be avoided, wear a particulate respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA. Use respirator in accordance with manufacturer’s use limitations and OSHA standard 1910.134 (29 CFR).
